Members Polly Posted November 20, 2023 Members Report Posted November 20, 2023 Hello, I was searching about leather and found this page, it looks pretty cool and I'll have to keep it in mind for future questions and ideas! I'm rather new to leather working and am wondering if I can stamp on dyed veg tanned leather. Trying to make guitar straps for Christmas for my brothers and if I can eliminate the dying process that would make life easier. Thanks much! Quote
CFM tsunkasapa Posted November 21, 2023 CFM Report Posted November 21, 2023 You CAN stamp and tool it, just as other veg tan. But it will be much harder to see your tracing and guide lines. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted November 21, 2023 Members Report Posted November 21, 2023 Also , if you need to case (dampen) the leather, the water may not soak in , depending on how it was treated or if it has a sealer on top. HS Quote

I might just have to try it! 11 hours ago, Handstitched said: Also , if you need to case (dampen) the leather, the water may not soak in , depending on how it was treated or if it has a sealer on top. HS Hmmm I hadn't really considered that, thank you for the heads up! Quote
